FRONT SIDE FRAME (PARTIAL CUTTING) INSTALLATION[PANEL REPLACEMENT]

Caution
• The cut-and-joint area indicates the maximum size range of the installation position.
1. Make reinforcement panel using the material of the front side frame.
2. To cut-and-join the new part, cut at the locations indicated in the figure below and bevel the cut-and-join
locations of the new parts.
3. When installing the new parts, position each part so that the section measurement aligns to the body
dimension.
4. To install the inner, trial-fit the new and old parts, weld the old parts and the reinforcement, and then weld the
new parts.
5. Install the hook reinforcement and the frame reinforcement before installing the outer.
6. Because the outer cannot be welded to the old parts from the inside of the frame, drill 2 plug weld holes at the
old parts. Install the reinforcement and the old parts by plug welding from the outside of the frame, then butt
weld the new parts.
7. Weld each joint of the inner, and wheel apron panel (front).
8. Grind each joined location on the inner and outer with a disk grinder, then finish process the surface.
